Chapter 357: Sending Farming Tools to Yao as a Wedding Gift

Of course we'll take it, let them bring it together and we'll ride the carriage tomorrow.

Once this thing is taken away, they can go slowly tomorrow and also enjoy the scenery along the way—a win‑win.

Just thinking about it feels as comfortable as an autumn outing.

Here, Nan Qinghuan and the others are preparing to attend a wedding tomorrow; it's truly not easy, and fate really is a mysterious thing.

Who could have known that You Chaiji and Yao would walk together? Truly, destiny is heaven‑ordained, not up to anyone.

Here, Nan Qinghuan and Ying are under the moonlit blossoms; now that the road is built, the remaining task is to stock supplies for winter.

It's deep autumn, yet she still worries because senior brother's group hasn't secured winter provisions yet.

He wonders how he'll get through this winter if he stays. Nan Qinghuan is thinking of Li Xiang, and Li Xiang is naturally thinking of Nan Qinghuan.

Although they're no longer lovers, they are now family.

A wind rose at midnight; Li Xiang, up in the Treehouse, still can't sleep. Now that he's with Duo Luo, he has officially become a resident here.

Of course, as a resident he must consider his tribe, because he also wants a good life.

Now the Carriage issue is resolved, the tribe has regained health, so it's time to build the road.

He will also gradually construct the Carriage; Qinghuan is right—this place needs to change.

He, like Nan Qinghuan, is ambitious, wanting to turn this place into a happy Eden, though he knows it will require great cost and effort.

But with Qinghuan there, he's willing to give it a try!

"Li Xiang?"

A voice from behind came—Rongdi. Li Xiang turned his head and saw Rongdi, who had flown in, causing the Treehouse to tremble slightly.

"Leader?"

Rongdi looked in good spirits, since the tribe's poisoning issue was resolved by Nan Qinghuan's disciple, allowing him to consider other matters.

"Li Xiang, why aren't you asleep yet? Did Duo Luo send you out?"

He didn't expect Rongdi to crack a joke.

Li Xiang scoffed, "How could that be? I'm just thinking about the road. We need to use Ying's land, and there's a place said to be Wolf Tribe territory. Leader, it might be difficult."

Rongdi actually came to discuss this matter with him.

The lone wolf told him that Li Xiang said the matter is difficult, but he really wants the road because he saw the road built at Ying's place—how nice, and the Carriage is very comfortable.

He really wants to try.

He knows that after Ying got the Carriage, things became more convenient; Ying is getting better and better, so this place must change too.

So the Wolf Tribe issue still needs to be resolved!

Li Xiang has his own concerns; to build the road he must pass the Wolf Tribe hurdle. He doesn't want to ask Qinghuan and Ying for help; he wants to try using his own ability.

"I heard you once attacked the Wolf Tribe and killed many of their people, is that true?"

Li Xiang realized that building the road is truly hard, because Rongdi causes trouble everywhere; before this, he had strained the Tribe's relations, almost sparking a fight with Ying, saying they'd act now that Spring has arrived. But because of his relationship with his junior sister, they aren't at war now, yet the Wolf Tribe issue still needs solving.

Rongdi had killed their people before; can Yao of the Wolf Tribe agree to cede a disciple? He's now headache‑stricken over how to resolve these disputes.

He knows that for Tribes to develop they must coexist peacefully, but what about the Wolf Tribe? Hearing Li Xiang, Rongdi's complexion turned sour, pale under the moonlight.

He once contemplated exterminating the Wolf Tribe, but who could have imagined he'd have to deal with Yao over a road someday.

Yao hates him to death.

At this moment, Rongdi feels his past mistakes were absurd; he previously didn't believe Nan Qinghuan's talk of peace, always thinking that wiping them out would make him stronger.

But now he truly understands that only peaceful coexistence brings strength and lets the tribe enjoy good lives.

What about Yao here? He's momentarily at a loss. Facing Li Xiang's questioning, he can only helplessly nod, "Indeed, I once killed many Wolf Tribe members; they bear great hatred toward me."

"Since that's the case, what shall we do about the road now?"

Li Xiang saw that Rongdi was reluctant to deal with the Wolf Tribe, and reminded him, "We can't reroute; passing through Wolf Tribe lands is the fastest, also the quickest way to Ying's place. Leader, can you make peace with Yao?"

He knows Rongdi's temper; indeed Rongdi was hot‑tempered before, now somewhat reformed, but would he proactively seek peace with Yao for this road? That Yao, he has heard, is also a Beastman; Beastmen should communicate well with each other.

But would Rongdi agree? He finds it a bit uncertain.

Sure enough, hearing this, Rongdi's complexion wasn't good; he knows Yao's temperament well—back then Yao was fighting desperately.

For this road, he certainly won't agree.

So… Rongdi feels his temper has been worn down, yet he still can't accomplish this.

He can't manage to apologize to Yao.

"Think of another way; I won't apologize to Yao. The Tribal Conflict has no right or wrong."

Dropping that line, Rongdi left the Treehouse; Li Xiang had guessed this long ago, and he had someone tell Rongdi that they needed Yao's help, so Rongdi arrived.

He can build the road, but how can he build it on someone else's territory? In an instant, Li Xiang felt a headache!

"Li Xiang"

From the wooden house behind, Duo Luo hurriedly stepped out; Li Xiang hadn't expected her to still be awake.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

They are now husband and wife living together, and he swore to treat Duo Luo well.

To give her a happy life.

"I heard what you said to the leader, insisting on going that way?"

Li Xiang nodded; he had already considered that and would avoid it if possible.

But it's not possible!

He shook his head helplessly, "No, I know Rongdi doesn't want it, so the road becomes hard to build. Duo Luo, think of a way to solve this; I think Rongdi will listen to you."

He feels Rongdi still heeds the High Priest, so perhaps Duo Luo's words will be effective.

Duo Luo shook her head, "You don't know how bad his relationship with Yao is; he killed Yao's mother—do you think Yao would be willing?"

This surprised Li Xiang. What? Even the Ancient People have such a blood feud—what to do? Duo Luo also knew her man needed her support now, and suddenly she seemed to recall something, "Got it, I heard Yao is getting married tomorrow, and the person getting married is someone from Ying's side; they'll all go. Our tribe has a rule: if you bless the other side at their wedding, it's the best goodwill. Li Xiang, shall we try this?"

"You say Na Yao is getting married?"
